:blush:  Yeah i'm still new to Linux so I'll make sure I won't log into root again. 

As for the red hat icon... That was there when I updated from FC2 to FC3... I haven't actually done any customizations.. Still trying to get everything I need to work.

Don't worry we will make very certain that you will NOT get flamed here for being a noob! The one thing that I appreciate the most about Ubuntu, aside from teh good distro, is the forum community's willingness to be helpful and not condescending.

Remeber there are no stupid questions, only stupid people... uh, wait that didn't come out right. ;)

Anyone using Gnome 2.10? I'm considering unmasking it, but ATM I don't have the patience to fix any problems - should they occur.

I am using it with Hoary as well, and have had no Gnome specific problems. Come on do it, you know you want to, do it, do it, all the cool kids have already upgraded, what are you scared? :D

This is my attempt at porting "SystemGClassic", a metacity theme by hornett, to openbox. I'm using the clearlooks-indubstrial GTK theme here, and I decided to change away from using pypanel to fbpanel, which can give me just a system tray and pager and nothing else (nice).

Which config file? lol!

You'd need to edit your .fvwm2 config file for that. Are you even using FVWM? If not, you won't be able to do that at all ;)

FVWM is a window manager. You're using gnome, not FVWM... You can't get the same effect (vertical titlebars) in gnome.

      By BlueScreenJunky · Posted

      No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
